The Targeted Catalogs
AlKindi: The written heritage of the Muslim worlds
Abū Yūsuf Yaʿqūb ibn Isḥāq al-Kindī, who passed away in 866, played a pivotal role as a transmittor. He effectively transmitted Greek philosophy to the emerging Islamic culture by orchestrating collaborations with Syriac monk-translators, which facilitated the development of a scientific vocabulary in the Islamic world.
Albertus: The written heritage of the Western medieval world
Saint Albert the Great, a German Dominican, was the pioneer who first introduced Greek and Arab sciences to the burgeoning European university. His writings encompassed logic, philosophy, and theology, as well as botany, astronomy, and law. He passed away in Cologne in 1280. His most renowned disciple was Saint Thomas Aquinas.
Ignatios: The written heritage of the Eastern Christian world
At the beginning of the second century, Saint Ignatius, Bishop of Antioch, was one of the earliest Christian theologians. His writings on the divinity of Christ and the episcopal organization of the Church are universally acknowledged by both Eastern and Western Churches. He met a martyr’s end in Rome.
Maryana: The portal of the Nahḍa
Maryana Marrash (1848‒1919) was a Syrian writer and poet of the Arab Renaissance (al-Nahḍa). She revitalized the tradition of literary salons in the Arab world and was among the first women to publish Arabic poetry in modern times and contribute to Arabic-language daily newspapers.

The French National Library
With the support of a grant from the Mellon Foundation, the French National Library subsidized the development of Diamond-ILS between 2020 and 2023. These efforts aimed to facilitate the integration of additional partner libraries into the "Libraries of the East" Project, a thematic online portal hosted on Gallica, the French National Library's digital platform. Within this framework, the Arabic Manuscript Institute in Cairo has been able to catalog microfilms of manuscripts preserved in at-risk libraries in Yemen.
